The extraordinary strategist

Because a child has been born to us, a child is given to us, and the government will be on their shoulders; and his name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9: 6).

If you are ever in a difficult, adverse, or challenging situation, this Scripture verse is your ticket out of trouble into victorious life. When you fully understand the power and importance of the above writing, you will find that you can never be at a disadvantage. The way this scripture is translated in the King James Version of the Bible makes it a bit obscure. As a result, many people do not fully understand its meaning.

You see, in the original Hebrew translation of Isaiah 9: 6, there is no punctuation between the words “Wonderful” and “Counselor.” It actually says, “Wonderful Counselor.” You will notice that the other words in this scripture are dualized: The Mighty God, the Eternal Father, the Prince of Peace; “The prophet was actually being poetic in his eulogy of the Son of God. So when he said ‘he will be called Wonderful Counselor’, he actually means ‘Extraordinary Strategist’. In other words, he is wise and powerful enough to draw His children out of seemingly impossible situations.He knows exactly which strategies are so divinely flawless that they can only be described as “extraordinary.” He is the extraordinary strategist.

For example, when the children of Israel were cornered with the Egyptian soldiers behind them and the Red Sea in front of them (Exodus 14:10), they were afraid and Moses did not know what to do because there seemed to be no way out. But the extraordinary strategist had a plan! He led the children of Israel through the Red Sea on dry land. That is the extraordinary strategist. His name is Jesus.

As far as He is concerned, there is nothing like a dead end because it cannot be mistaken. He is the embodiment of ALL wisdom and knowledge (Colossians 2: 3). No matter what crisis you have found yourself in, He knows the way out; He knows exactly what to do to get out of the dilemma. If you’ve been living off the charity of your family, friends, or government, he knows the way out of poverty. He knows how to get out of that darkness. What’s more, He lives within you! The Holy Spirit has brought His presence directly into your spirit. Take advantage of His wisdom today and come out of all the darkness in your life; Move from victory to victory with your extraordinary strategist.
